UNM, Kellys Collaborate to Create "Lobo Red" Ale

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind. --- Cheers! The University of New Mexico and local Albuquerque brewery Kellys Brew Pub have joined together to release "Lobo Red," a special medium body red ale.

Distinctively New Mexican, Lobo Red features hints of sweet caramel balanced with mellow hoppiness and a "breezy high desert aroma," as stated in the tasting notes included on the custom-designed packaging. The can, emblazoned with the official UNM Lobos logo, describes the beer "like a buzzer-beater got together with a Hail Mary to run a flea flicker on (the drinker's) taste buds."

Patrons will get their first taste of Lobo Red at the Lobo Club Cherry & Silver Scholarship Gala on Friday, August 18.
